A MX3 in this color would look simply amazing and I have yet to see it done, honda guys are all over this color. Follow the trends
If you want to be different then paint your car CHROME!

PS~

I think it looks smexy. ;)

Me likey! Actually I was thinking about a green scheme pretty much identical to that lately but Ive been partial to a flat color or atleast airbrushing in rivets... Something a bit more military/stealth fighter lol

wow, thats real nice!! very original. Love the new hood shape too!
I'm also a sucker for blue cars, particularly the electric blues (which explains why i've now had 2 dark red cars :? ), but your choice is real original. Love it. I dont think that more khaki civic colour would have worked on the mx3, but yours is fantastic!
keep it up :D

The green is awsome!....Is that a type f lexus....it looks like one. I got to drive my brother-in- laws this past weekend...it makes you really un-happy with a 150 dollar mx-3. I was doing over 200k around a tight s curve...insane.
